Cry Tough - The Treatment

Sixteen years, what have I got

I ain’t got money, and I ain’t got a job

I hate this city, I hate this town

Better get straight because they’re gunnin' you down

Better cry tough

‘Cause I’m a man on a mission

And I’m ready to go

Better cry tough

You better keep yourself from daylight

I’m back on the streets again

I’m back on the streets again

I want it all, and I want it today

No better time to throw my life away

You say I’m crazy, but I’m better than you

You ain’t the one to tell me what to do

Better cry tough

‘Cause I’m a man on a mission

And I’m ready to go

Better cry tough

You better keep yourself from daylight

I’m back on the streets again

I’m back on the streets again

Tell me where you wanna go

I’d just like to know

These gray mothers are getting me down

And the world is turning far too slow

Sixteen years, what have I got

I ain’t got money, and I ain’t got a job

I hate this city, I hate this town

Better get straight ‘cause they’re gunnin' you down

Better cry tough

Better cry tough

Better cry tough

You better keep yourself from daylight

I’m back on the streets again

I’m back on the streets again

(again, again)

Lord, please, can you save my soul

I’m alone in the dark with no place to go

No lifeboat to rescue me

I’m the one with the power to set me free

I want it all, and I want it today

(today, day)

I want it all, and I want it today

I want it all and I want it today

Tell me where you wanna go

I’d just like to know

These are getting me down

And the world is turning far too slow

Better cry tough

‘Cause I’m a man on a mission

And I’m ready to go

Better cry tough

You better keep yourself from daylight

Better cry tough

Cry

Better cry tough

Oh, yeah

Better cry tough

You better keep yourself

I’m back on the streets again

I’m back on the streets again

I want it all, and I want it today

Yeah

I want it, and I want it today, yeah

Oh

I want it all, and I want it today

Whoa

I want it all, and I want it today
